A large crowd of protesters took over Kano streets earlier yesterday to
protest the US made low budget film that portrayed Prophet Mohammed in a
bad light.
The rally which began in the Fagge area of Kano was organized by the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, a pro-Iran shite group.
The protesters sang anti-US and Isreali songs while marching through
the city of Kano from a mosque in Fagge eventually ending the protest
at the palace of the Emir Kano where they burnt the American flag before
dispersing peacefully.
Heavily armed Nigerian troops kept a watchful eye on the protesters throughout the march.
